St. Bernard SO says fight, but no arrests, at Chalmette High

(from the St. Bernard Parish Sheriff’s Office) – The St. Bernard Parish Sheriff’s Office is investigating a fight early Tuesday morning between some students at Chalmette High School but no one was injured or has been arrested, Sheriff James Pohlmann said.

Also, contrary to reports on social media, the sheriff’s SWAT team wasn’t called out to the school, the school was never placed on lockdown and faculty members weren’t injured. No weapons were involved either.

Faculty members had the incident largely in control when sheriff’s Patrol Division units and sheriff’s detectives from the Juvenile Division arrived, Sheriff Pohlmann said.
